Energy of moving Sine-Gordon breather

A few days ago I stumbled across the formula for the energy of a moving breather for the sine-Gordon equation $$ \Box^2 \phi = -\sin\phi.$$ The energy in general is given by ($c=1$) $$ E = \int_{-\...

Proof that infinite set of conservation laws imply no pair production

In QFT in 1+1 dimensions it is known that the presence of an infinite number of conservation laws, specifically in integrable systems like Sine-Gordon, implies that there is no pair production, and ...
